1. An automatic lighting control system, comprising:
- at least a lighting device, each of said at least a lighting device being adjustable and having a remote control function;
at least a sensor, said at least a sensor automatically configuring a wireless sensor network, and each of said at least a sensor detecting a corresponding luminance of a system environment; and
a decision module, said decision module receiving said luminance detected by said sensor through a wireless network, and adjusting each of said at least a lighting device in a remote dynamic decision mode according to system information, users'"'"' demands and said detected luminance by each of said at least a sensor.

Abstract
Disclosed is directed to an automatic lighting control system and method. The system includes at least a lighting device, at least a sensor, and a decision module. Each lighting device is adjustable and has a remote control function. A wireless sensor network is configured by the one or more sensors. Each sensor may sense a corresponding luminance and returns the luminance to the decision module in a wireless manner. The decision module may dynamically adjust one or more lighting devices to a suitable luminance by referring to system information, the returned luminance and user'"'"'s demands.

12. A method for controlling luminance for an automatic lighting control system, applicable to a system environment in which a user moving or changing demands on luminance, said method comprising:
-
pre-storing system information, user information, and luminance reported by at least a sensor and determining the luminance required to be provided by at least a general lighting device of said system environment; dynamically adjusting each of said at least a general lighting device; determining the luminance required to be provided by at least a local lighting device of said system environment, and adjusting each of said at least a local lighting device; and receiving luminance detected and reported from each of said at least a sensor and determining whether a target threshold of luminance being reached;
if not, repeating the above steps until said target threshold of luminance being reached. - View Dependent Claims (13, 14, 15, 16)
